The Major Program<br />
The Asian American Studies Program offers an interdisciplinary<br />
major that examines the experiences of<br />
various Asian American groups in the United States.<br />
Pertinent to these experiences are the historical, cultural,<br />
legal, political, social-psychological, class,<br />
racial, and gender contexts for Asian Americans.<br />
The Program. Majors take a prescribed set of<br />
lower division and upper division courses in Asian<br />
American Studies.<br />
Career Alternatives. Asian American Studies<br />
prepares students for a variety of careers. Given the<br />
multicultural nature of society and the increasing<br />
relations with different societies, many occupations<br />
seek individuals with background and expertise in<br />
ethnic relations and cultural issues. Graduates often<br />
enter the fields of teaching, research, government<br />
service, law, social services, etc., as well as graduate<br />
schools for advanced degrees in various disciplines.<br />
